Note the spheroid shape emerging from the pool of water (water door) passing through and being supported by a cuboid shape. This cuboid shape and water door concept is syncromysticly tied to the opening of the stargate or some sort of transition to a higher level. Also worth noting is the oval shape of pool which mirrors the feminine/mother energy, combined with the "mother-bird feeding her young" image of the "bird's nest" stadium which is housing the event itself. Overall, I would say this 08/08/08 Beijing Opening Ceremony was a mega-ritual designed to symbolically and synchromystically welcome the arrival of this eight-dimensional activation by way of the opening of a stargate. Need another example? check the octagonal shapes of the screens with the faces of children. It may sound crazy, but watch the video for yourself.
